Herman Reaches Deal With NFL's Giants

Former Ohio offensive lineman Eric Herman signed a four-year rookie contract with the New York Giants Wednesday according to ESPN. The deal comes nine days after the Giants concluded their 2013 rookie mini-camp.

The Giants began voluntary organized team activities Wednesday at their training facility in East Rutherford, N.J. According to ProFootballTalk.com’s Mike Wilkening, if Herman makes the active roster for the season opener he will likely serve as a backup behind veteran guards Kevin Boothe and Chris Snee.
